condo comparison at the Huntington Metro: AMENITIES
This is part of series of articles comparing the benefits of condos in close proximity to the Huntington Metro
Amenities are an important part of any condo buying decision.
Amenities such as a pool and fitness room are pretty standard in most
condos, but some condos offer a bit more. It is no different in the
four complexes surrounding the Huntington Metro.
No matter how you compare them, the best amenities on the block are
at Montebello. Montebello’s community center is home to most of these
amenities and it is well-maintained and pleasant. Here’s a list of some
of the features of Montebello.
- Parks & Grounds
- Security
- 24-hour security
- gated community
- Indoor Activities
- Convenience & Services
- Party Rooms & Common Areas
- Health & Fitness
- Pools
The runner-up in this category is at the Midtowns at Alexandria. The
Midtowns have an absolutely gorgeous lobby and lounge (a cyber cafe) on
the first floor. The pool at the Midtowns is on a roof deck located
half-way up the building. From this party deck, one has great vistas
toward the Blue Ridge and the city of Alexandria. There are barbecue
stations and more to enjoy here on the deck. The party room is first
class and state of the art. It’s the type of place you’d be proud to
bring guests or enjoy as a resident.
The Huntington Club and the Hunting Creek Club are far behind the
first two on this list. These two condos have more pedestrian offerings
that are standard fare. Both have a pool, party room and fitness room.
(Huntington Club recently renovated their pool.) Hunting Creek Club has
a nice tennis court.
